Wan Wan Lei Qin Episode 5 Recap
> Wan Wan Lei Qin Recap
Despite Zhen Wan's impudence, Liu Qingying wasn't angry. Instead, she showed a pleased expression and said she actually liked male favorites with such personality. She instructed her subordinates not to trouble Zhen Wan and invited him to have dinner together. Under the envious and jealous gazes of the other three, Zhen Wan dined with Liu Qingying. Seizing the opportunity, Zhen Wan discreetly added poison to the food, anticipating Liu Qingying's eventual death.
However, as the monarch, Liu Qingying was cautious. She carefully used a silver needle provided by her subordinate to test the food and indeed discovered the presence of poison. Bai Quan immediately led a thorough investigation, scrutinizing everyone involved in the process, from the imperial kitchen to the eunuchs and maids serving the food. However, despite the strict scrutiny, they couldn't determine the exact point at which the problem occurred.
To err on the side of caution, Liu Qingying decided to disband the imperial kitchen and have a few male favorites cook for her. Upon hearing that they would become her personal cooks, the male favorites, who usually avoided any menial tasks, felt aggrieved and expressed their unwillingness and lack of culinary skills. Seeing their reluctance, Liu Qingying became furious. She had already been poisoned, yet they were concerned about their image. It was evident that their professed deep affection for her was nothing more than empty words. Faced with their dark culinary creations, Liu Qingying invited General Wei to join her for the meal, but he had no appetite upon seeing the dishes.
